forget the concert... lets get ice cream!

now that chloe can ride bike on her own its so nice to go out for bike rides with her cause she doesn't have those damn training wheels slowing her down... so we went for a cruise downtown to catch a glimpse of the friday night concert going on.

we HAD to stop at the dairy and get ice cream. i've never seen that place as busy as it was on friday night. everybody wanted ice cream and i don't blame them cause their ice cream is super yummy! chloe definitely enjoyed hers:


so many people gathering together to enjoy some tunes... one reason i heart p-town:
then we rode home

'cause i'm one determined woman...

so i kept trying to upload the video from clay's birthday and i couldn't get it to work. i seriously tried like 16 times. i finally figured out what i was doing wrong... i wasn't saving it as a video file. duh? anyways, problem solved. enjoy!

double digits

clay turned 10 yesterday!! he wanted to keep his big day pretty low-key so his best friend spent the night and we went to the new indiana jones movie and fudruckers ( his fav place to eat). then we invited some close friends over for cake and fireworks. it was splendid! happy birthday to my big ten-year old!!

opening presents

showing off his new crawfish
i made a sweet video of the party but i'm retarded and can't seem to upload it. i cant figure it out... sometimes i can upload a video with no problem and other times it won't work... argh! anyways, i tried like 5 times to upload it and its not working so i'm giving up : (

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLAY!

we went pickin'

well, we headed out to brentwood to go peach picking again. the kids have lots of fun climbing the ladder and trying to pick out the perfect peach. i think we got plenty of good ones... 19 pounds of peaches! anyone want some luscious peaches.. just lemme know. in other words: "please do not molest the corn..." ha ha ha

i seriously go out to brentwood just for this stuff. they are the best corn nuts ive ever tasted! i picked up an extra bag for a certain friend of mine who likes corn nuts too : )

ha ha ha ha

my pops sent me this video. its awesome.

went on a couple of really rad dates...

thats right. i've been dating. the first date was with La. we went to the fair and... honestly, words cannot describe how much fun we had. well, maybe a few words and some hilarious pictures. check it out here

my other date was with my man. we went bowling. it was sooo nice to spend some one-on-one time with each other : )

his game has gotten pretty darn good... he got a strike and a bunch of spares! he was so stoked!

like mother like son... our snack of choice was nachos, of course!! i swear, sometimes its so unbelievable how my kids are totally just like me. clay asked if we could get nachos before we even got there. yeah!

final score: clay 110 momma 134

bowling just kind of runs in the family. i can remember going to the bowling alley all the time when i was a kid. ma and pops used to bowl in a league ( ma still does) and we would go just for fun as a family. my bro is hecka good too... he puts a rad spin on the ball and he beats me every time! i swear, we should join a family league or something... we would kick ass.

hmm... now i just gotta teach my boy how to play hold 'em... ha ha ha!

holy heatwave, batman!

the kids have a summer camp this week. and by kids i mean: chloe, juniper, avery, and our new friend chase, too. they're all in the same class and we drop them off around 9 and pick them up at noon. it feels kind of weird but incredibly rad at the same time. so ive been having a little spare time to myself in the mornings... today i spent my free time killing spiders in la's backyard. there is some kind of serious infestation going on back there, i tell ya. he he

well, its hotter than heck outside, but we be stayin cool yo.

i finally figured out what i was doing wrong and why i couldnt upload videos off my camera! yeah, im stoked.
